Boy Scout Troop 100

WHO WE ARE

Boy Scout Troop 100, chartered to St. Joseph Catholic Church, was established in 1949 and is among the longest, continuously active troops in the Indian Waters Council. Troop 100 currently has 45 scouts with 6 active Eagles. The Troop has strong links to Cub Scout Pack 100 as well as Venture Crew 100, both also chartered to St. Joseph Church. Troop 100 is very much a youth led organization with an active PLC and BSA trained youth leadership. Troop 100's members are also very active in the Order of the Arrow's Muscogee Lodge 221, traditionally providing many chapter (Eluchaset #1) and lodge officers.

Troop 100 holds weekly troop meetings on Tuesdays at 7:00 PM at St. Joseph. We have an active camping schedule with 9-10 campouts per year plus a full week of Summer Camp. Troop 100 also maintains an active schedule of service projects which beneift the community including the American Legion, St. Vincent de Paul Society, Columbia Federation for the Blind and the Celebrate Freedom Foundation among many others. Recent Eagle Scout Leadership Projects have benefited local schools, churches, and shelters as well.

The Troop Committee meets the third Tuesday of each month (August - June) at 6:30 PM in the Parish House. Our Adults have a high degree of training with many having completed Wood Badge and several having staffed Wood Badge courses. All adults have BSA Youth Protection Training as well as VIRTUS certification. The adult leadership and troop committee are committed to providing the support needed to offer a quality, youth led program and are strong supporters of the BSA's Aims and Methods of Scouting including the Patrol Method.

If you would like to learn more about Troop 100, please contact us and we will be happy to provide you with more detailed information.

CAMPOUT May 14-16

We will be camping at Ft. Jackson and participating in the Celebrate Freedom Foundation's Air & Ground Show. Scouts will be Viet Cong re-enactors! This will be an easy campout with meals provided. We will have most (maybe ALL!) of our newest scouts - the "Shock" patrol - with us, so we need all of our Troop Guides and Instructors! ADULTS are always welcome on our campouts. The permission slip is here.
